|  #1 Posted on 3.2.11 1533.47 | Instant Rating: 9.17 | We're Back for the seventh year now of the-w.com's WWE PPV Prediction Results. It truly is a labor of love. Or I just have OCD about keeping track of this stuff. Either way, the results from the 2010 "season" (from Elimination Chamber 2010 to Royal Rumble 2011) can be found below.
Copied and pasted from last year to explain things...
To explain the rankings, to those who are new to the process: I split the results into three categories based on the number of PPVs guessed. The top level is for those who guess between 6-14 PPVs; the middle level is for those who guessed 4 and 5; and finally, the lower level is for those who guessed 1-3. Since I don't think it would be fair for someone who guessed only one PPV and went 4-0 to win the title, I arbitrarily made the decision to make only those who guessed between 6-14 eligible for the big prize. It also encourages people to predict more PPVs. If you are atop the other two levels, you can also proclaim yourself winner of that level at least, even if it's not the overall crown.
Last year's thread: http://the-w.com/thread.php/id=40094
Past winners include OMEGA, Torchslasher, kentish, hhhgamewmx7 and Shem the Penman. Your winners (and losers) for this year...

Number of Predictors this year: 93, way up from 71 last year- had 29 in the first level this year, only 19 last year, and 11 two years ago. Keep'em coming!
Most guessed PPV: Wrestlemania, 61 (up 15 from the previous year's Mania)
Least guessed PPV: Fatal Four-Way, Survivor Series and TLC all had 24 (last year's least-guessed had 12).
Look for the first prediction thread of the new year, for Elimination Chamber, to be posted after Raw on the 14th!

I totally predicted each time because of the thread last year (well, and a renewed interest in wrasslin'), so thank you VERY much for doing this!
After a (very) long hiatus, I have begun to write again. And this time, I'm not alone!

I actually not only predicted as much as I did because of last year's thread, I actually started watching RAW and to some degree Smackdown again because of it.
Although I have to ask how the predictions take into account when the WWE changes a match during the PPV like the diva's 2-1 match to a Fatal Four Way? Does everyone who didn't pick Eve lose that one?
But really no, I find this sort of thing really interesting for some reason. Good to know I got 50% of my booking predictions correct. It's comforting considering 50% is much higher than the WWE's booking team has with good ideas. | geemoney

Good question: I actually just throw that match out and don't count it in the final tally if a match has been changed/a person has been added to a match. | John Orquiola

Yeah, come to think of it, so did I. Thanks, geemoney!
I wish WWE would bring back that Fantasy game from five years ago. I enjoyed (winning) that way more than I probably should have.

We used to have this AWESOME "oddsmakers" threads around here which probably makes too much time to make.
